Lonestar Electric Supply

I came to this company on a guarantee that was not honored. Took a pay cut and was supposed to be given my pay after 3 months. When that did not happen, I gave them my 2 weeks and they then offered me the money I was denied and more. Their leadership is weak and have gone through 3 warehouse managers since I've been there. 1 was let go. 1 quit. 1 stepped down. Their leads are either lazy or aren't confrontational enough to tell people to do their Job. I've had to stay late because people would leave their work halfway done. They'll double down on the people who work but won't say anything to the guys standing or sitting around. The people who worked there, leads and associates, made it worthwhile. 

I started this job in July of 2019. I started as a machine operator and the wire department. I learned everything that they had to offer. The job seems to be a dead-end job with no opportunity for advancement. I did get promoted to inventory manager. With the same pay no raise more responsibilities. They also asked me to go to my old apartment to cut wire. That area has a specific manager and supervisor who do not even know how to run the machines. They put people in places that have no experience and can't do the job. Expecting a employee to pick up the slack. I have never been in a management position where I was asked to go back to square one. It was very insulting and I felt it was racist because I was the only black manager.

Biggest problem with the Dallas location specifically is a total lack of management interaction with all employees.  The only time you will talk to them is when they want to tell you about how much better they are at the job, with no insight or training to help you grow.  They have tried to make changes, but ultimately ONE man, the president of the company needs to go to better this company.

This place is not a career position. The two owner are at the location daily, but don't even greet you once they walk throughout the warehouse. They never thank you for their profit. They spent it directly to themselves, as you see them with high-end vehicles every six months. This place does not offer raises or promotions within.

I have been here for close to a year now. This company is the best electrical distributor that I’ve worked for. Sales is very hands off management wise. You are allowed to sell the way you want to sell. There is very little corporate red tape. As long as you are doing good business and handling your duties, you are good. I enjoy this type of work environment.

Need to fire bob he’s a snake and a slacker. He caused devision between management. He goes on multiple trips out of state for “family”. Makes you feel guilty if you take 1 day off. He tries to act like he knows everything when Neil is around. but he pawns off training to other employees. He never spent 5 minutes with me.
